Beginning in the fall of 1969, Mississippi students were exposed to a new world. For the first time, children of all racial backgrounds sat side by side in public school classrooms. Although nearly 15 years earlier, the landmark case Brown v. Board of Education had declared public school segregation illegal, most children across Mississippi and elsewhere in the South attended "separate but equal" schools until the late 1960s. A decade earlier, black children endured overcrowded and under-equipped classrooms, with education funding mostly going to white-only schools.

For Immediate Release June 28, 2002 Johnson Named Mississippi’s State Superintendent of Education Dr. Henry Johnson, one of the driving forces of North Carolina’s school improvement efforts, is leaving North Carolina to become State Superintendent of Education in Mississippi. Kenny Bush, chairman of the Mississippi State Board of Education, made the announcement today. Johnson, who has been Associate State Superintendent for Instructional and Accountability Services at the N.C. Department of Public Instruction, replaces Dr. Richard Thompson. Thompson is returning to North Carolina to join the University of North Carolina System. He was formerly the Deputy Superintendent in North Carolina. State Superintendent Mike Ward said of today’s announcement, "The State of Mississippi has selected an outstanding new State Superintendent. Dr. Johnson is one of the nation’s most innovative school leaders, and I’m confident he’ll be a driving force for school improvement in that state. He’ll be sorely missed in North Carolina, but we’re proud that one of our educators has been chosen for such an important role. On behalf of the North Carolina State Board of Education, Chairman Phil Kirk expressed happiness for Johnson and sorrow for the state. "Henry Johnson has provided steadfast leadership for our state’s massive school accountability and improvement efforts. We will miss his guidance, but this is a wonderful opportunity for him and for Mississippi. We cannot thank him enough for all that he has done to improve our schools."

Search to the homepage of the National Center for Science Education, Inc NCSE a nonprofit, tax-exempt membership organization working to defend the teaching of evolution against sectarian attack. We are a nationally-recognized clearinghouse for information and advice to keep evolution in the science classroom and "scientific creationism" out. While there are organizations that oppose "scientific creationism" as part of their general goals (such as good science education, or separation of church and state), NCSE is the only national organization that specializes in this issue. When teachers, parents, school boards, the press and others need information and help, they turn to NCSE. While most of NCSE's work involves defending evolution against attacks, we also work to increase public understanding of evolution and science "as a way of knowing." We also have programs to help teachers who want to improve their teaching of evolution. Here you'll find information and resources for all these activities.

Box 302101 Montgomery, AL 36130-2101 Dear Governor Siegelman: On behalf of the undersigned organizations, we are writing to alert you to a disturbing effort by U.S. tobacco companies to form “partnerships” with state departments of education and other reputable organizations concerned with the health and welfare of America’s children. This endeavor is another in a long line of cynical public relations initiatives by the tobacco industry to gain “innocence by association” with credible organizations such as yours. While its purpose is to appear reformed and responsible, the tobacco industry uses these relationships to avoid fundamental changes in its unethical marketing and manufacturing practices. We strongly urge you to reject any funding or other type of relationship with the tobacco industry.

Contents NEGOTIATION MEDIATION DUE PROCESS COURT CASES ... REFERENCES Forums Education and Kids Gifted Children Related Articles Challenging Gifted Students in the Regular Classroom How Parents Can Support Gifted Children Gifted preschool, elementary, and secondary school children have very limited protections under state and federal laws. By contrast, children and adults with disabilities have, under federal statute and in turn under state law accepting federal provisions, comprehensive protections in the following areas not yet applicable to the gifted: identification for screening and program admission or eligibility purposes, educational or other institutional and related services, employment policies and practices, architectural barriers in and about public buildings and transportation facilities, and other civil rights protections. Parents, educators, and other concerned adults involved with gifted children should know the legal framework in which the education and related services are set forth. The Jacob K. Javits Gifted and Talented Students Act of 1994 was not established by Congress to protect the legal rights of gifted children, but rather to provide for model programs and projects. In contrast, the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act of 1997 does give extensive legal rights to persons with disabilities.
